Scenario
Colonel Pat Bacon is the newly-appointed director of the
department of state police. She has only been on the job 1 week
when she receives reports of questionable conduct by some of
her officer employees.
When she looks into the matter, she discovers a culture of
noble cause corruption
, including the following three major ethical lapses:
Planting of evidence
Lying in court
Falsifying police reports.
The police officers justified their conduct by saying that they
were convicting dangerous suspects.
Write a memorandum from Colonel Bacon to her employees.
The memo should be crafted as if it really was written
from
the Colonel to her employees as an internal-office memo, but
the memo should also, for the sake of the Assignment and its
educational value, cite sources properly in APA format. The
memo from Colonel to her employees must address the
following issues:
Define
noble cause corruption
.
Identify at least three critical points at which her officers make
ethically-informed (if questionable) decisions.
Analyze the possible ethical breaches involved in this scenario
in the context of what you learned about noble cause corruption.
Compare and contrast possible alternative responses to each
ethical dilemma. (What is an alternative, for example, to
planting evidence?)
Clearly set forth the Colonel’s expectations for ethically-sound
conduct by her employees.
